Are we CRAZY ????
Are we crazy ? The Vietnamese people in our apt building seem to think so. Whenever we go out anywhere we always get stares mainly because we live in an area that is just about all Vietnamese. I think the people at the market next door have gotten use to me by now so I am not pointed at as much. Well back to my story, the last two nights for some reason or actually they really do not need a reason here they just do it, they have closed our fitness center. Now you have to realize that this is a very important time that we have committed each day to sweating our bodies to death. I expect my skin and body to look at least 30 maybe 40 years younger due to this commitment. Anyway since they locked the doors tight on us we decided to do laps around the outside of our apt building. Since the center of the building is where the people gather to socialize and feed their children each day it is usually quit crowded. Well here we are doing our laps and the people keep staring at us. I know we are whiter than they are and taller but are we really that different looking to them, oh did I forget to mention that it was raining while we were doing these laps, both nights?? We might be crazy to walk in the rain but not as crazy as they are to ride those motor bikes like they do or chase their kids around to feed them lunch or sit on these hard tile floors for hours at a time. Maybe tonight I will use an umbrella and give them even more to talk about !!! Those odd Americans....
